One Bounce and One Arm Wall Pass:

Simply set up facing a wall with one ball. The player will bounce the ball before passing it towards the wall.

On return of the ball, the player will bounce it with the other hand before passing with that hand, with the ball returning back to the previous hand, and this is repeated.

Passing Technique

Sidestep and pass:

Make a lateral step. Pass off the hip of the feet that lands against the wall so that the ball bounces back to make a catch without having to move. Repeat
